SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

There is always a danger present when using electronic equipment.

Unexpected high voltages can be present at unusual locations in defective

equipment and signal distribution systems. Become familiar with the equipment

that you are working with and observe the following safety precautions.

• Every precaution has been taken in the design of your product to ensure that it is

as safe as possible. However, safe operation depends on you the operator.

• Always be sure your equipment is in good working order. Ensure that all points

of connection are secure to the chassis and that protective covers are in place

and secured with fasteners.

• Never work alone when working in hazardous conditions. Always have another

person close by in case of an accident.

• Always refer to the manual for safe operation. If you have a question about the

application or operation email ProCare@Sencore.com

• WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock never allow your

equipment to be exposed to water, rain or high moisture environments. If exposed

to a liquid, remove power safely (at the breaker) and send your equipment to be

serviced by a qualified technician.

• To reduce the risk of shock the power supply must be connected to a mains socket

outlet with a protective earthing connection.

• For the mains plug the main disconnect and should remain readily accessible and

operable at all times.

• When utilizing DC power supply, the power supply MUST be used in conjunction

with an over-current protective device rated at 50 V, 5 A, type: Slow-blo, as part of

battery-supply circuit.

• To reduce the risk of shock and damage to equipment, it is recommended to

ground the unit to the installation’s rack, the vehicle’s chassis, the battery’s

negative terminal, and/or earth ground.

Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the

party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the

equipment.

2.1 Rack Installation

The MRD 7000 software product runs on Supermicro brand hardware. Please

consult the Supermicro 1028R-WMR(T) Revision 1.0b user manual for complete

detail on the rack installation and power cable connections.

https://www.supermicro.com/manuals/superserver/1U/MNL-1723.pdf

2.2 AC Dual Redundant Power Connections

The Dual Redundant option allows the MRD to be powered by two separate supplies

either operating 120V or 240V systems. The power supply will automatically detect the

system it is connected to. To hook up the power use the following steps:

1. Locate the AC power cords that are included.

2. Plug the female end of the power cords (end with no prongs) into the back of the unit.

3. Locate a protected outlet (usually inside of the rack) to plug the male ends of the power

cables into.

2.3 Maintenance

Refer to the server manufacturer documentation for detailed information regarding

server hardware maintenance.

To request a copy of the latest MRD software or release notes from Sencore email

ProCare@Sencore.com

2.4 Network Setup via KVM

Connect the VGA (D-SUB) cable to a monitor and a USB keyboard.

The VGA will display the current ethernet settings and provide a text-based menu to

configure IP addressing, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS settings.

Sencore recommends configuring the Eth0 port (Leftmost NIC when facing the rear of

the unit) be set to a static IP for web-interface access. Ensure the user machine is also

on the same network.

For additional information on initial network configuration menu see the Sencore MRD

7000 Quick-Guide documentation.

configurable and is strictly a status or value. To minimize the status windows again click

the icon.

Status in the MRD 7000 web interface is shown with LED status indicators:

Green LED

Status is good. No errors are present and function is operating

normally.

Red LED

Status indicates function is affected by active error. To view

the errors, navigate to Alarms panel to view Active Errors.

Grey LED

Status is inactive. Function is currently disabled or

unavailable.

3.2 Decoder Panel

The Decoder panel of the MRD 7000 web interface is used to configure the unit to

decode and what output format to use. Each functional piece has a heading: Inputs,

Conditional Access, Transport Stream Processing, Decoding, Baseband Processing and

Baseband Output sections are listed from the top down.

MRD 7000 – User Manual

Page 19 (100)

3.2.1 Configuring Active Input

This menu allows the user to configure a primary and backup input. In case there is an

input failover the MRD 7000 is capable of detecting the failed state and switching to a

secondary backup input in order to provide a continuous output. Which input is primary

and backup, how the inputs switchover and restore and switchover timing is all user

configurable. Input options include File Input, MPEG/IP Stream 1, MPEG/IP Stream 2,

ASI Port 1, ASI Port 2, ASI Port 3, ASI Port 4, SRT Input 1, SRT Input 2, Seamless RTP,

Zixi Input 1, Zixi Input 2, Sattelite Port 1, Sattelite Port 2, Satellite Port 3, Satellite Port 4.

Each MPEG/IP Stream Input, SRT Stream Input, Seamless RTP, and Zixi Input can be

configured to use either Eth0 or Eth1 ports on the back of the chassis.

Each Satellite Input and ASI Input will follow the physical ports which the name displays

in the Web GUI

Input File can play a stored .TS or .TRP transport stream file by uploading to the MRD

7000 internal storage. This is done by browsing to the MRD’s IP address using FTP or

Windows file sharing.

During failover operation this input will

become the active input. The catalyst for

is configured in the following setting.

Switch On

Manual Only

TS Sync Loss

Decode Failure

Manual Only: the unit will not switch inputs

automatically. The user must manually

switch inputs.

TS Sync Loss: the MRD 5800 will switch

from the primary to the backup input if the

primary stream loses synchronization for

the duration of the Switchover Interval.

Decode Failure: the unit will switch to the

backup input when it encounters decoding

errors on the primary input.

Restore On

Manual Only

Primary Input TS Restored

Backup Input TS Sync Loss

Decode Failure

Manual Only: the unit will not restore to the

primary input automatically. The user must

manually switch inputs.

Primary Input TS Restored: the MRD 5800

restores to primary when the Primary input

regains transport stream synchronization.

Backup Input TS Sync Loss: the unit will

switch from backup to primary when the

backup stream loses synchronization for the

duration of the Switchover interval.

Decode Failure: the unit restores to the

Primary Input when the Backup Input

experiences a decoding error.

Switchover

1-20 seconds

The time in seconds which Switch On or

configured state before the MRD 5800

switches between the Primary Input and
